National Poetry Day 2023: Reading a Poem

Here’s a poem for National Poetry Day. It’s a found poem taking lines from real and fictional love letters – some by famous lovers, renowned writers, and fictional characters too. I wonder if you recognize any of them? Also check out what we have arranged at Poetry Wales: you can read a whole issue today for free via our partners Exact Editions today in celebration of National Poetry Day (check out links in our socials), and there is a moving post taking a moment to mourn the Sycamore Gap tree over at MODRON Magazine.
